Chapter 188 A woman in love is an idiot
Using shares as bait, let Yan Xi handle Yan Nuo’s affairs for him and let Yan Nuo return to Jintai.
In this way, even if the matter is exposed, he will put all the blame on Yan Xi, which will ensure the father-son friendship between him and Yan Nuo.
So, this is one of the reasons why he tried hard to find Yan Xi.
Yan Xi was a little surprised when she heard this.
Yan Zhengxiong has always held his shares firmly in his own hands and controlled all the life and death collections.
Now, he was so easy to let go and was willing to transfer the shares to her, which surprised Yan Xi.
However, she didn't think Yan Zhengxiong would give her shares so easily, and there might be other hidden secrets behind it.
Although she really wants Jintai's shares, she really can't make her ruin a person's life for this.
She knew very well how important photography was to Yan Nuo. Now that he finally gave up everything and pursued his dreams without any distractions, how could she be tempted by Yan Zhengxiong to destroy everything about him?
Fortunately, she was ready for some time when Yan Zhengxiong asked her to stay.
In this situation, if she refuses directly, it will not only be unfavorable to herself, but may also affect Yan Nuo's game.
If she is unwilling to be an accomplice, Yan Zhengxiong will naturally find someone else to help him do things, and then he will be unable to guard against it.
Instead of doing this, it is better to take it down first. On the one hand, it can stabilize Yan Zhengxiong, and on the other hand, it can also help Yan Nuo.
Besides, there is no reason to return the shares delivered to the door.
A smile appeared on Yan Xi's lips, but his expression was still so uneasy, "If Brother Nuo knew about this..."
Yan Zhengxiong looked at her gently with a nice face, "As long as you don't say it, I don't say it, no one will know. You are a smart child, and naturally you know how to destroy his works quietly."
He paused, then he slowly raised his hand, patted Yan Xi on the shoulder, and bewitched, "As long as you help me, 15% of the shares will belong to you. When Yan Nuo figures it out in the future, he will be grateful to you."
Yan Xi was stunned for a moment. After a long time of silence, he finally nodded, "Okay, I am willing to help Brother Nuo get back on track."
A smile suddenly appeared on Yan Zhengxiong's old face, and he nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, I did not misread the person. As long as you are by Xiao Nuo's side, then Jintai, and even the entire Yan family, will definitely become stronger and stronger in the future."
Yan Xi didn't say anything, just smiled at him.
At the same time, she paused her hand in her pocket and then clenched it tightly.
When Yan Xi came out of the restaurant, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
When we walked out of the door, there were no people at the door except the waiter.
Yan Xi shook her head lightly and secretly mocked her in her heart. She was crazy. Do you think that at this point, he would still wait for her here?
Now that they have become like this, he seems to have no reason to wait for her.
Yan Xi told herself not to think too much, so she even planned to take a taxi back to the apartment.
It is very far from the company. Even if you leave now, it will probably be almost evening and you will get off work again soon.
Instead of consuming time like this, it is better to go back and have a good rest now and think about how to fight the next battle.
Just as Yan Xi stopped and thought like this, a large ball of white marshmallow suddenly appeared in front of her.
Yan Xi was suddenly stunned and unconsciously looked along her eyes, but saw Gu Moyan standing beside her with a cotton candy that looked like a white cloud, with her expression still indifferent, but there was a hint of warmth in her eyes.
Yan Xi's heart trembled unconsciously and asked him in surprise, "Why?"
He slowly pulled her hand, stuffed the marshmallow candy stick into her hand, and said lightly, "I happened to see a small shop selling marshmallows nearby. I remembered that you like to eat, so I bought it by the way."
Yan Xi stared at the marshmallow in her hand, and then couldn't help but raise her eyes again, "Why didn't you leave?"
Gu Moyan's eyes paused slightly, and he curled his lips coldly, "Do you want me to leave?"
Yan Xi's body suddenly stiffened and his speech was in a flash.
She didn't know how she should answer, so she hoped he would leave? Of course it was impossible.
However, there is a deep gap between them now, and she cannot speak it calmly, and she hopes that he will stay.
Therefore, she could only move her lips dryly, not knowing what to say.
When Gu Moyan saw that she didn't say anything, his eyes seemed to dim a little, and he spoke lightly, "It's just that I want to tell you something, so I stayed there. You don't have to have any psychological burden."
Yan Xi was stunned for a moment, subconsciously clenched the candy stick in his hand and murmured, "That's it."
"It is inconvenient to speak here, let's change the place." Gu Moyan said again after a few seconds of silence.
Yan Xi was a little surprised, with a slightly hesitant look, and her heart was full of uneasiness, not knowing what he wanted to say to him.
Do you want to make peace with her or completely break up with her?
Seeing his cold expression, Yan Xi always felt that it would be the latter.
When she thought of this, her palms couldn't help but seep out of dense sweat, and her body seemed to become stiff.
Seeing that her reaction seemed a little unnatural, Gu Moyan couldn't help but curl her lips, "If you have anything else, you can leave first."
"No, I didn't make any arrangements this afternoon." Yan Xi responded almost reflectively.
The moment he finished speaking, Yan Xi suddenly reacted. Looking at Gu Moyan's slightly stunned expression, he felt embarrassed, and he was secretly annoyed that he had no principles.
She said she was the one who kept her distance, but now she has accepted the invitation from the other party so actively?
What would he think of her? Will he think she is making trouble?
For some reason, she cared very much in her heart, as if she had scratched her cat's claws gently, and itchy, which made her unable to ignore.
She glanced unconsciously in the direction of Gu Moyan, and saw that the lines on his handsome face had become much softer, as if suddenly they had faded away from the coldness and strangeness, and returned to the appearance she knew.
Yan Xi's heart moved slightly, as if something was gently buckled, leaving behind waves of echoes.
"There is a cafe in front of you, let's go and sit there." Gu Moyan looked at her, and a faint smile slowly emerged from the corner of her lips.
Yan Xi's heart was a little confused, and he nodded in a hurry, and then quickly changed his eyes.
She was afraid that if she continued to watch, all her persistence and principles would be gone.
She lowered her head slightly and took a slight bite of the marshmallow in front of her. It was indeed very sweet, and it was the milk flavor she liked.
She just once unconsciously mentioned in front of him that she likes to eat milk-flavored marshmallows.
Just this, he remembered it in his heart, which surprised Yan Xi himself.
Women in love are all idiots, and this sentence is true.
Even she herself had to doubt whether her IQ was owed a fee. When she encountered something related to him, it would be difficult for her to remain rational and would follow his rhythm without realizing it.
Just staring at his dark eyes made her mind upset and her head blank.
She secretly annoyed her uselessness, and at the same time she secretly warned herself not to lose her mind by love and do things that she regrets.
Yan Xi pursed her cherry lips and slowly calmed her expression.
Although the cafe is not big, it has a petty bourgeois atmosphere, and the decorations in each place seem to be so just right.
Gentle warm tones, simple and generous decorations, and retro-style vines create a leisurely and quiet atmosphere.
In such a cafe, savoring a cup of coffee and tasting delicious desserts will make people feel comfortable physically and mentally.
This is the first feeling that came to Yan Xi when she walked in.
However, Gu Moyan has always had a good vision, and even if he made a temporary choice, he would not let down other people's expectations.
Yan Xi followed him into the private room on the second floor, and chose a seat beside the window and sat down.
Gu Moyan ordered her a caramel macchiato and a latte for herself.
His ordering movements and expressions were still so skillful, just like they were when they were together.
Although she is not picky, her favorite drink is caramel macchiato. No matter how many times she drinks, she doesn't seem to get tired of it.
As long as she enters the cafe and as long as there is it in the store, she will order this every time.
She didn't expect that he could remember such fragmentary details.
She always felt that life seemed to be very slow, but if you think about it carefully, in fact, they have known each other for half a year.
Half a year is enough for two people to go from stranger to familiarity.
It is incredible that all kinds of intimate relationships have been shown to cope with the outside world. Over time, it turns out to be true.
When Yan Xi remembered that when they first met, she couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
They competed and tested each other, and finally reached cooperation, slowly made arrangements, and got to where they are today step by step.
She once thought she had planned his power and his fiancée's position, but she never thought that she would have been plotted against her.
A heart that was struggling to hide was courageous and sent out, and since then, it has never been taken back.
Yan Xi lowered her eyes slightly, and her slender fingers gently stirred the coffee in front of her, making her mood complicated.
Just then, Gu Moyan suddenly spoke, "Are you surprised to see me today?"
Yan Xi's movements suddenly paused, and after a few seconds of silence, he nodded softly.
It is indeed very unexpected, and I am a little overwhelmed.
Gu Moyan curled his thin lips and said in a low voice, "Yan Zhengxiong had mentioned marriage intentionally or unintentionally in front of me. Although today it is to welcome Yan Nuo, let us attend together, so I just want to force the marriage. So, I think you may not be able to deal with it alone."
Although he could not tell Yan Xi about this, he was afraid that she would have a little more misunderstanding of him, so he decided to explain it to her.
In fact, he also had some selfishness.
He wanted to see her, to see her openly, and talk to her.
However, he would not tell her about these things.
Even if he deliberately used this as an excuse to wait for her to meet, he would not tell him about it.
He has become accustomed to calculating and thinks about the most appropriate way to deal with every move.
It is impossible for him to be honest with all his own things.
Yan Xi was suddenly stunned, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Gu Moyan actually only said seven points, but he didn't say the next three points directly, but Yan Xi himself understood.
Since she was intentionally forced to get married, she could not make excuses by herself.
Yan Zhengxiong is such a scheming person, and a small detail may arouse his suspicion.
Therefore, Gu Moyan’s concerns are not unreasonable.
No matter what kind of conflicts there are between them, before the matter is over, they must show their loving appearance in front of others so as not to be caught.
How did Gu Moyan learn about the Yan family banquet, and how did he know the location and time of the banquet? Needless to ask, Yan Xi could guess it almost.
His power was unimaginable to her, and it was normal to get some news.
However, the premise is that he is paying attention to the Yan family.
Although she also knew that he might have paid attention to the Yan family because of Jintai and may have nothing to do with her, she felt a little happy in her heart.
Perhaps, she had taken it for granted, perhaps, for him, she was not just a treatment tool.
Although he was thinking so, Yan Xi could not say it shamelessly.
After thinking about it for a few seconds, she slowly responded, "Thank you for helping me out."
"It's okay, we have signed a contract and the interests are consistent." Gu Moyan responded with a curling lips.
Yan Xi was slightly stunned, and then he suddenly remembered the relationship between them and partners.
Indeed, they had determined each other's interests earlier and made a contract.
This is a fact that she had known for a long time, but why at this moment, she felt extremely bitter in her heart?
Consistent interests...
He wanted Jintai, but she wanted to destroy the Yan family, which was indeed the same purpose.
But why did she feel that they seemed to be drifting apart?
I don’t know when, but her feelings for him gradually changed. Perhaps it was his repeated protection, or the gentle details, or perhaps it was his last adventure to save him.
Originally, there was only a relationship of interests, but it was gradually mixed with personal feelings, and many things began to change.
This is like a rash addition of a substance to a chemical experiment. Under the risk of possible explosion, the substance generated is also completely opposite to the previous one.
Now she doesn't know how to stop this experiment, let alone how to go back.
But the only thing she knew was that she could not give up.
After Yan Xi calmed down his emotions, he said slowly, "Yan Zhengxiong wanted me to stop Yan Nuo from participating in the Huasai Awards competition and threw out 15% of the shares as bait. Among them, 5% had been cashed out, and the remaining 10% would wait for the end of the matter."
Gu Moyan's eyes moved slightly, and his big hands slowly stroked the wall of the ceramic cup, and nodded lightly.
